(CNN) The University of Notre Dame announced Tuesday it would move to virtual learning, a temporary, two-week shift meant to contain the spread of Covid-19. Later that day, editorial board members of The Observer -- the student newspaper covering Notre Dame, as well as neighboring Saint Mary's College and Holy Cross College -- held an emergency Zoom meeting. They discussed the school's announcement and the option of temporary remote learning versus going virtual for the entire semester. "About what we're going to do when they make us write obituaries." On Friday, The Observer's front page highlighted this plea: "Don't make us write obituaries."
